Halva

cook the main ingredients on med low heat until golden brown in a large pot, stirring constantly. In another pot mix syrup ingredients u til boiled. Pour the syrup very slowly into the the pot with semolina while stirring with a long wooden spoon. The mixture will be bubbly and will spit so be careful.

Remove from heat with the lid on and wait 5 min. when cooled fluff with a fork and serve with sprinl;ed cinnamon.
